Professional designers guide FrameStore’s clients through the 2,200 moulding options that can accent paintings and treasured items while adding style and elegance to rooms. The store’s craftsmen then fashion pieces to patron specifications, outfitting frames with classic or museum-quality glass that blocks UV rays from bleaching out images or censoring pictures of the moon. Every piece goes through a 16-point inspection before it is given to patrons, and the team averages a seven-day turnaround on all of its projects.

Groupon Guide

Typically, homes get an urban feel from interesting industrial elements: brick walls, exposed piping or ductwork, and patinated floors. But even if your home isn’t built that way, you can still evoke a middle-of-the-city vibe with the right decorative pieces.
Here are seven ways to set a metropolitan mood in any building.
1. Decorate like a city planner.Seen in: Chef Christine Cikowski’s Logan Square apartmentThe design element: A series of six The National posters, which create a panoramic illustration of the Brooklyn BridgeWhy it works: It’s a very straightforward way to bring a little piece of a city into your home. A similar effect could also be achieved with street maps or blueprints.2. Store your stuff unconventionally.Seen in: Restaurateur Michael Ciapciak’s Logan Square home
The design element: A pot rack upcycled from a fire escapeWhy it works: City apartments are often short on storage space, forcing people to come up with interesting ways to display their things. This rack does just that while adding the perfect amount of grit to an otherwise pristine kitchen. 3. Make a statement (wall).Seen in: At left, menswear designer Suzie Sorenson’s Humboldt Park home; at right, musician Ann Torralba’s Hermosa bungalow
The design element: A textured statement wall
Why it works: OK, so maybe your house doesn’t have the oh-so-coveted exposed-brick wall. You can still play with texture, whether by slapping on some chalkboard paint or distressing the top layer of existing paint. The latter option works great in older homes, where walls are often covered in several layers of color.4. Domesticate gritty items.Seen in: Photographers Stevi and Matt Savage’s Lake View loftThe design element: An auto-shop cart, which the Savages used as a diaper-changing station before converting it into a home bar.Why it works: The cart has a super-modern metal construction, and it adjusts to its new job easily. Garage carts are literally built for storage, and the castered legs make it easy to push around at parties. Couchside martinis, anyone?5. Play with pops of color.Seen in: Modern furniture collector Nick Roux’s Lincoln Square apartmentThe design element: A cherry-red typewriter Why it works: An all-white space can feel very contemporary but also a little cold. The typewriter infuses this monochromatic room with a controlled, bold splash of color. 6. Incorporate well-aged pieces.Seen in: Ciapciak’s Logan Square homeThe design element: A headboard made from stacked apple cratesWhy it works: Even if your hardwood floors are in perfect shape (or you have carpet), introducing aged pieces—especially wooden ones—lends the space the same well-tread look of many pre-war buildings.7. Balance hard and soft.Seen in: Cikowski’s Logan Square apartmentThe design element: A plush tufted sofaWhy it works: It balances the hard, angular features of industrial elements with some colorful softness. Plus, the tufted design has a vintage feel, which fits in nicely with an urban-chic vibe.Get more decor ideas from the Groupon Guide:Wall Art Can Be More Than Framed Photos and PaintingsTours of Gorgeous Chicago Properties

When Nirvana was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame earlier this year, it sent fans back down memory lane. Along with the baby swimming in the pool on the cover of Nevermind, another image soon comes to mind: the eerie video for “Smells Like Teen Spirit.” And while a smoky auditorium filled with dead-eyed cheerleaders may not be the perfect setting for a friendly dinner party, there’s no reason why you can’t draw inspiration from the video’s grungy aesthetic to take your table from elegant to edgy.
Use a gray tablecloth to evoke the drab drop cloths surrounding the basketball court, and set a fog machine in a corner of the room to recreate the hazy landscape. Green-striped napkins mirror Kurt Cobain’s iconic shirt, while colorful cupcake toppers and napkin rings keep things from getting too bleak while giving a nod to the school-spirit pennants and pompoms in the video. What does the cow-shaped creamer have to do with anything? It references the moos and other barnyard sounds that fill the “Weird Al” Yankovic parody “Smells Like Nirvana,” of course.
Helena graphite tablecloth; Crate & Barrel ($89.95)
Chauvet Hurricane 700 fog machine; Guitar Center ($36.99)
Border stripe yarn dye napkin; West Elm ($16 for four)
Cow creamer; Fishs Eddy ($9.95)
Blue gingham cupcake topper; A Party In The Hamptons on Etsy ($3.25 for 6)
Pompom napkin-ring box set; Pom Pom Factory ($58.15 for 20)
